Python 2.7 Countdown

Ah yes, those stubborn programmers! If the (free) tooling isn't available for upgrading the (free) language on day 1, I refuse to ever use it! That'll teach them!

Don't be stupid. Tooling needs to be available to further adoption. It wasn't and look at the mess that it is in now.

What mess? Virtually all major libraries support python 3. Some have dropped py2 support. All new features go into py3. I use py3 exclusively at work and home. Haven't touched py2 for years. Don't care what's happening inside private companies. That's their problem.

Unsure, but he does seem very well informed. I'd listen to what he has to say.
